Daniel 10:16-18

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ Then one in human form touched my lips, and I opened my mouth to speak, and said to the one who stood before me, “My lord, because of the vision such pains have come upon me that I retain no strength. ¹⁷ How can my lord’s servant talk with my lord? For I am shaking,^[a] no strength remains in me, and no breath is left in me.”

¹⁸ Again one in human form touched me and strengthened me.
